Figure 10.6 Examples of types of massive ground ice (panels A–C) and ground cryostructures (panels D–H) encountered in permafrost over the BBDS region: (A) Massive ground ice mound – a frost blister, (B) Buried massive glacier ice, (C) An ice wedge, (D) Structureless – porous non-visible ice, (E) Lenticular – microlenticular segregated ice lenses, (F) Layered – wavy, segregated ice lenses, (G) Irregular reticulate – segregated ice lenses, and (H) Suspended/reticulate – segregated ice lenses (photos by E. L’Hérault).
